Default Blue Cab Clearance lights?

Yes, just like the ones on Ironhide in the Transformers movie. I want them. Haha.
Anyone seen any like that for sale? Or were they probably custom made for the movie?

You can kind of see them in this pic:



And here:








I'm sorry, but that movie kicked-***, and I love the way those blue cab clearance lights look...

I believe that blue lights are reserved for police &/or emergency vehicles & are illegal for anything else except for a movie prop

In NYS blue lights are reserved for volunteer firemen.


And those lights are QUEER. Just like the truck they are attached to.

They are not street legal in any state. Only police and fire/ems can have them, regardless of use or size.

And yes the Transformers movie totally kick ***-----Best movie I have seen in a while (and my kids loved it too)

But would have been better if it was a ram!

federal law says that any color besides ORANGE or WHITE are illegal to be seen from the front of the vehicle.. and RED or ORANGE or WHITE from the rear.. they must not be flashing, strobing, 'wig wagging' or any of the such unless used for official business.. that part is a little more lenient.. the law varies a little state by state as to what colors are reserved for what profession.. in NC .. red is fire / ems.. blue is law enforcement.. green is security (rent a cop's) if you get caught using any other color besides what this law mandates.. you are at risk of tickets, loss of license, jail, and impoundment of your vehicle.. no matter how 'neat' they look.. they arent that neat.. and personally.. i think they kinda look gay.. like they said up there .. as does the truck.. gmc generic mountain of crap ... isnt anything but a glorified chevy.. and bow ties are for girls.. save ur money dude and stay off the blue lights
